Due to the Easter holidays, the latest meeting of Motherwell Photographic Society took place on Zoom.

The guest for the evening was Chris Ceaser from Yorkshire. He is an award-winning landscape photographer who organises photography workshops in the UK and Europe, and has a gallery in York showcasing his work.

Chris gave a presentation called ‘Venice in Pictures and Words’. It told members of the history of Venice accompanied by his images of the city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Members were shown stunning images of Venice, many of them taken at sunrise using a slow shutter speed.

Following a short question and answer session, club president Colin Cameron thanked Chris for sharing his wonderful images with the group and for telling everyone about the fascinating history of Venice.

The next meeting, on Thursday, April 20, will be the club’s annual general meeting. All club members are urged to attend.

Motherwell Photographic Society meet on a Thursday evening at 7.30pm in Holytown Community Centre, Stevenston Street, Holytown, ML1 4RG. As always, anyone with an interest in photography, no matter your level, is welcome to attend.

Members look forward to welcoming friends old and new.
